  • Tenants

    Where you locate is one of the most important business decisions you will make. It needs to fit your budget, meet your specific requirements and work for your employees and customers - in a nutshell it needs to be the right fit. The pendulum has shifted, and today it's a tenant's market with more options and price points to choose from. Due to the economic downturn, increased vacancies have driven rents down, concessions up and landlord's are looking for quality tenants. Now is a great time to look for new space or if you are planning to stay, renegotiate a longer term and capitalize on today's lower rents.

    Here's where working with a knowledgeable brokerage team is key. We can save you time by locating the spaces that meet your needs, set up and coordinate the tours, draft up the lease proposal with your input. We can save you money by providing you with critical current market data, so need to make an informed offer and negotiate favorable terms which meet your specific needs.

  • Testimonials

    "I have worked with Cindy both as a purchaser and seller of a commercial property. I found that whenever working with Cindy, she is committed to the highest level of service. Cindy is creative when working with both the seller and the buyer on solutions that work for both. Cindy always stays on top of the sell or purchase until it's 100% completed. Her performance has always been outstanding and will always receive the highest level of referral from me. I look forward to an opportunity to work with her again!"

    Owner and Operator of: Advanced Circuit Solutions, LLC and White Rock Enterprises, LLC

    "This was my first experience owning commercial property, and I can not stress enough how Cindy Brown went above and beyond any expectation I would ever have for my realtor. During the time I had it listed, I was hospitalized and then had an extended recovery. Cindy stepped up and took control of my building at my request. This included having to deal with a very difficult tenant who required so much of Cindy's time I don't know how she worked on anything else. She had much larger listings than mine, yet I feel she put everything she had out there to get my property sold. Cindy put together a wonderful marketing plan and most important, implemented it. Cindy has her finger on the pulse of the Portland market during this very difficult time. Cindy cares about her clients, she cares about getting positive results. I truly believe Cindy is one of a kind and I feel so lucky to have met her and had her on my side. She knows the commercial real estate business, and does an excellent job. Most importantly she sold my building fast!!"

    Carol O'Cell, Seller

    "I feel fortunate to have been referred Commercial Quest NW brokerage services by another building owner I know several years ago. Through their efforts Cindy and Julie recently located two separate qualified tenants for my vacancies, and I have been appreciative of how hard they have worked on my behalf and more importantly the results they have delivered."

    Kevin Fitzpatrick, FKF Investments, LLC

    "I have truly enjoyed working with Cindy, for she maintains a "client first" attitude in quickly leasing up 43,000 Sq Ft with seven different tenants in one of my buildings in Hillsboro. She is focused and determined and has advised me to hold off on a prospective tenant, trolling for a better one with less improvements needed, delaying her commission for a better "global tenant". How refreshing is that in todays business environment! Definitely, not your typical "cubical broker" pushing a deal through."

    Robert E. Ellinwood, Ellinwood Investments, LLC

    "As a global company with many locations and demands for facilities in North America and areas in the rest of the world, we have found it critical to work with knowledgeable local Real Estate brokers when making siting decisions. Veolia ES, Technical Solutions has utilized the professional services of Cindy Brown of Commercial Quest Northwest on several occasions in both locating space for a new facility, and when market conditions dramatically changed assisting us in subleasing the existing space as well as locating a new smaller space so we could downsize to fit our changing needs. Cindy demonstrated a strong knowledge of the industrial options available to us in this complex situation. She is very knowledgeable of the Portland metro/Southwest Washington market and was very helpful in sorting through the options and helping to determine the site that suited us best and to details to make it happen. Her creativity, professionalism, keen attention to detail and persistence were invaluable to our company during these searches. I would recommend Cindy Brown and her services to any company in the area with commercial or industrial space needs."
